One solution for pages protected with .htpasswd is to submit URIs such as
this one:
http://user:password@pmwiki.org/wiki/Some/Page
However, this doesn't work with other authentification schemes unless
pmwiki is modified to extract username/password from the URI if it's
there. IIRC, Patrick will consider do this if we ask him. Otherwise I
think it's a matter of doing something with cookies (I don't remember).
Patrick, maybe it'd be good if pmwiki did use any authentification
supplied with the URI?
